TIA Resources for Tennis Facilities

Tennis facilities are one of the key providers in the industry and are a primary "touch point" for the tennis consumer, as well as the delivery mechanism of industry programs and initiatives. To assist tennis facilities in growing the game, the Tennis Industry Association offers a variety of tools and resources they can utilize in their operations and in helping increase their profitability.

With the aid of this manual, a manager can come as close as possible to experiencing the day-to-day issues and events that take place in a club. Many of these issues and events are at best manageable and not always resolvable. It's this insight of managing that will help you grow in your job and eventually has you evolve in your skills along with the growth of your club.

The Facility Manager's Manual is a must read for every manager, whether they're new to managing or have 'been there, done that.' It gives you a comprehensive look at being a successful manager in the industry. On every page, there are gold nuggets of information that you can implement to make you successful and your organization more dynamic and effective.

Tennis facilities looking to fill open positions have the ability to use the Careers In Tennis website as a free recruiting resource to fill their positions. With over 1500 registered jobseekers and nearly 30,000 job views of the site annually, Careers In Tennis is the industry's largest "career center," connecting employers with potential future employees.

10 and Under Tennis is one of the industry's newest initiatives and tennis facilities are a key component to helping make this initiative successful. From getting your programs listed, to download marketing collateral, the 10 and Under Tennis "partners" site gives you quick and easy access to all the materials than can help you make 10 and Under Tennis a success at your facility.

Playtennis.com is the industry's new 'central portal' for tennis consumers to find out about all things tennis. For facilities, it's important that you get your facility data listed, your programs posted, and your teaching pros are searchable on the playtennis.com website.

In addition, the industry has developed marketing collateral to help you promote the initiative to your members and those in your community. This marketing collateral and quick access to getting listed on playtennis.com can all be found on the playtennis.com "partner" website.

As a part of our mission to grow the game the TIA has developed an ongoing webinar series that covers a variety of topic areas in the tennis industry. Information and educational opportunities in our webinar series include subject areas that will help grow your business, teach you how to leverage technology in your tennis operations, increase client retention and educate you on ways to maintain and maximize growth and profitability for your company.
